All Windows Phones to be compatible with Windows Phone 8 Apollo update

Unlike Android and some iOS users, it looks like Microsoft will not leave Windows Phone early adopters with outdated software installed on their device. During an event in Portugal, a Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that all Windows Phone devices will be able to get Windows Phone 8 Apollo update; even first Windows Phone devices to reach the market such as LGs and Samsung OMNIA will be compatible with the Apollo update.

Q: In terms of devices, who today have one is it expectable that…

A: What Microsoft said/stated and what I’m allowed to tell you is that all actual devices will get upgrade to the next major version of Windows Phone (we´re talking about Apollo)

Q: When you say actual devices. Are all that came out to market?

A: Are all that came out. Since the first generation that were bought. The LGs and SAMSUNGs.. OMNIA 7 which were the first devices with Windows Phone reaching the market.

Hopefully the updates will not take forever like Android phones over-the-air updates.
